I thought it might be fun to show the process of creating a painting for a client. I wish I had thought of it earlier so that I could include more steps, but here's what I have. This is a 5"x7" painting "sketch" for the final painting that will be 36"x60". This step is critical for me to work through the color and composition on a small scale and it allows me to give the client a good idea of what their painting will look like.
This is a picture of the final canvas in progress. I did a wash of yellow ochre over the entire canvas and then drew the bear in charcoal and blocked in the dark areas with burnt umber. I'll post more pictures as the painting progresses!

This is so cool! I've always wondered how you "see" what to do and where certain colors should go. This really helps non-artists like myself. Keep going!-K-
very cool, you are so talented!
I'm the client... and I'm thrilled with Annie's work. :)
